I need a second set of calipers for the Altima SR Turbo

I'm looking for a second set of brake calipers for the Altima SR Turbo. I can't find any online. I'm almost certain the brakes are different from the non turbo Altima so I probably can't use any brake set from any other Altima L34. Any help would be appreciated

Rockauto says same caliper. Building a 2020 Altima sedan sr vc-turbo 2.0l on Nissans site shows same parts for it as non turbos.

I am sure Vstar will be along to provide correct info soon. I believe he has one of those Altimas.

Two, but they're a gen3 and a gen5. The Parts Department will get me the real skinny tomorrow at the shop.

Thanks, I don't want to be salty because there might be a slight variation in 2022 year model. I learned the hard way that the ECU is different from the 2019-2022 Turbo models so I can't use the same aftermarket air intakes.

Wait for Vstar to provide info direct from the parts department at the dealership he works for tomorrow. That way you get the most accurate info.

I am wondering why you want a second set for a car that is still under warranty though?

I want to paint them to match the interior stitching for styling purpose without putting my car out of commission for awhile just to have to the calipers painted the RIGHT WAY. Plus I have some cool JDM wheels ( 19" WORK Emotion ZR10 gloss black diamond lip cut) with matching orange decal that I'm going to put on my car. I changed the seat belt color with custom made carbon shoulder padding and added real wet carbon paddle shifter extenders.

What do you consider the right way? The caliper paint kits I have seen use epoxy paint. Is this not what your looking for?

On a side note my Rogue uses the same instrument layout it seems. :)

Our Brake Calipers OEM and aftermarket parts range from $63.99 to $122.26 for the Nissan Altima

Front calipers cost between $85 and $110 each. Rear calipers sell for $90 to $110 per caliper. A general range for the pricing of remanufactured replacement calipers is about $80 each for front calipers and around $90 each for rear calipers and aftermarket parts range from $63.99 to $122.26 for the Nissan Altima

The right way or optimal way to paint calipers would be powder coat and bake them with clear coating so that the paint last and can withstand the elements for a long time. A lot of folk paint the calipers while still attached to the car which isn't optimal at all.

Must be the newer Rogue model that have the turbo.

It is a 2022.

I have heard the epoxy ones when prepped well will last a long time. But yeah powder coat is certainly a great option.

On your paddle shifters, are the carbon fiber pieces add ons or are they factory?
